The Board of Directors and Plan Participants
The Centel Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees:
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Centel Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees (the Plan) as of December 31, 2004, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2004 and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at year end) as of December 31, 2004 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements, but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

CENTEL RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN FOR BARGAINING UNIT EMPLOYEES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2004
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following brief description of the Centel Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees (the Plan) provides only general information. For more complete information participants may refer to the Plan document and the Summary Plan Description, which can be obtained by calling the Employee Solutions Network at 800-697-6000.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan established by Centel Corporation (Centel or the Company) and adopted by substantially all of its subsidiaries. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and is a qualified cash or deferred arrangement as defined in Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.
On March 9, 1993, Centel merged with Sprint Corporation (Sprint) and the Company became a wholly owned subsidiary of Sprint. Since the merger of Centel and Sprint, the Plan continues to provide benefits to eligible employees of the Company and its subsidiaries which have adopted the Plan. Effective November 1, 2000, the Centel Employees Stock Ownership Plan (CESOP) was merged into the Plan and the Sprint Retirement Savings Plan as appropriate.
Eligibility
Participation in the Plan is voluntary. Individuals who are employed by the Company or one of its adopting subsidiaries and who are represented by a collective bargaining unit that has negotiated for benefits under the Plan are eligible to participate upon date of hire. If an individual is not a permanent full-time employee, the employee is eligible to participate after completing six months of service.
Contributions
Participants may contribute up to 10% of their salary or wages to a pre-tax account. Participants may make after-tax contributions to the Plan, provided the sum of pre-tax and after-tax contributions does not exceed 16% of the participants pay. The first 6% is referred to as the basic contribution. Federal income taxes are deferred on the pre-tax amounts contributed until the funds are withdrawn from the Plan.
Pre-tax participant contributions may not exceed annual limitations defined in the Internal Revenue Code (Code) of $13,000 for the 2004 plan year, $12,000 for the 2003 plan year, and $11,000 for the 2002 plan year. The percentage that may be contributed by participants who meet the definition of a highly compensated employee as defined in the Code is periodically recalculated in order to maintain compliance with the nondiscrimination provisions of the Code.
Subject to certain limitations and restrictions, the Plan permits participants to make rollover contributions from other plans qualified under Section 401 of the Code.
In February 2004, Sprints board of directors decided to recombine the FON and PCS tracking stocks and return to a single common stock. As a result, on April 23, 2004, each share of PCS stock automatically converted to 0.50 shares of FON stock. Concurrently, the Sprint FON Stock Fund and the Sprint PCS Stock Fund were combined. Since that date, contributions allocated to purchase Sprint stock may be directed only to the Company stock fund.
The Company makes a matching contribution to the Plan in an amount which, together with forfeitures of the Company contribution due to participants withdrawals, equals the total of the Company contribution as required under the applicable collective bargaining agreements of the first 6% contributed by participants. Participant contributions in excess of 6% of each participants pay are not included in this calculation of the Company matching contribution. Upon completion of an enrollment form by the participant, the Company also makes a profit-sharing contribution of 1% (or other percentage as established in the participants collective bargaining agreement ) of eligible pay to all participants, regardless of whether or not they elect to contribute to the Plan. Company and employee contributions are made in cash.
3
CENTEL RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN FOR BARGAINING UNIT EMPLOYEES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2004
Effective March 2002, participants may choose to receive annual taxable dividend payments on vested Company matching contributions and pre-2002 employee FON contributions.
In 2002, catch-up contributions were made available to collective bargaining units that negotiated for this benefit. To be eligible to make catch-up contributions, a participant must be age 50 by the end of the respective plan year and must contribute the maximum elective contribution for that plan year. For the 2004 plan year, the pre-tax catch-up contribution limit was $3,000. For the 2003 plan year, the pre-tax catch-up contribution limit was $2,000. For the 2002 plan year, the pre-tax catch-up contribution limit was $1,000.
Investment Funds
Participants may direct their contributions into any of 29 actively and passively invested funds (30 funds prior to the recombination) which include a Money Market Fund, four Fixed Income funds, an Emerging Market Debt Fund, three Small Capitalization stock funds, two Mid-capitalization stock funds, three Large Capitalization Growth Stock funds, two Large Capitalization Value Stock funds, a Large Capitalization Blended stock fund, five International and Emerging Market stock funds, an S&P 500 Index fund, the Company Stock fund, and five pre-mixed portfolio investment options. The premixed portfolios range from Conservative Growth Portfolio with an 80%/20% mix of bonds/stocks to the Aggressive Growth Portfolio with 100% stocks.
Participants may, at their discretion, alter the array of funds in which their payroll contributions are invested. Participants may also execute a transfer of funds on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open.
Other limitations on transfers between funds apply in certain circumstances.
Concentration of Risk
At December 31, 2004, a portion of the Plans assets were in shares of Sprint common stock (FON) and at December 31, 2003 were in shares of FON and PCS common stock. The value of this common stock is subject to fluctuations related to corporate, industry and economic factors. At year-end 2004, Sprint common stock closed at $24.85 per share.
The Plans other investment options include a variety of stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and other securities. Investment securities subject participants to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is likely that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could affect participants account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
Vesting
Participants are 100% vested in their employee contribution and Company profit sharing contribution account balances at all times.
The vesting of Company matching contributions is based on a graded vesting schedule which is: 20% vested after two years of service, 40% vested after three years of service, 60% vested after four years of service and 100% vested after five or more years of continuous service with the Company. Earlier vesting may occur if, while an employee of the Company, a participant: (1) attains age 65, (2) incurs a permanent and total disability, or (3) dies.
Withdrawing participants who do not meet these vesting guidelines forfeit the non-vested portion of the Company contribution. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, forfeited nonvested accounts totaled $216,000 and $123,000, respectively. These accounts will be used to reduce future Company contribution requirements, though no forfeitures were used during 2004 for that purpose.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2004
Withdrawals
Participants may withdraw the vested value of their account when they retire, terminate employment with the Company, reach age 59 1/2, or meet hardship requirements defined in the Code. In-service withdrawals may be made by participants up to twice per year. The maximum amount of an in-service withdrawal is the sum of the after-tax account, rollover account, and the vested portion of the Company match account. The minimum in-service withdrawal is the lesser of $200 or 100% of the vested account balance.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow up to the lesser of (1) one-half of the total value of their vested account balance, (2) $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding balance of the participants loan from the Plan during the one year period ending on the date the loan is made.
Participants may have no more than two loans outstanding from the Plan at a time. Amounts borrowed by participants must be repaid within 5 years and no sooner than 6 months. In the event that the proceeds of the loan are used to acquire a participants principal residence, the maximum repayment period may be as much as 10 years. Loans are secured by the balances in the participants accounts. The interest rate charged on loans is set by the Employee Benefits Committee. Outstanding loans are being repaid at interest rates between 4.0% and 7.25%.
Participant Accounts
A separate account is maintained for each participant in the Plan. Each participants account is adjusted for (a) Company contributions on behalf of the participant, (b) the participants contributions to the Plan, including rollover contributions, (c) the participants share of any investment income, (d) withdrawals, (e) loans, and (f) forfeitures of Company contributions due to the participants withdrawal.
Administration and Plan Expenses
The Plan is administered by Sprints Employee Benefits Committee. Administrative and investment expenses are expenses of the Plan and, except to the extent paid by the Company, are paid out of the trust.
On April 1, 2004, the duties of the Pension and Savings Trusts Committee were assumed by the Employee Benefits Committee and the Pension and Savings Trusts Committee ceased to exist. The Employee Benefits Committee is the named fiduciary of the Plan and has responsibility for the administrative and financial activities of the Plan.
Termination
Although the Company has not expressed an intention to terminate the Plan, it reserves the right to amend or terminate the Plan at any time. Should the Plan terminate, the accounts of all participants will become non-forfeitable as of the date of termination.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Plan:
Valuation of Investments
Investments of the Plan are valued at current value. The current value of the common stock is based on the value of the last reported sale in the active market in which they are traded on the last business day of the year. The current value of equity mutual funds and bond mutual funds are valued at the redemption price on the last business day of the year. The current value of the short term investments is estimated at cost plus accrued interest. Loans to participants are valued at their principal balance.
Interest and Dividend Income
Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income from the investments is recorded as earned on an accrual basis.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U. S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Income Tax Status
The Plan has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated June 12, 2003, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Subsequent to the issuance of this determination letter, the Plan was amended. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The plan administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan, as amended, is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
Withdrawals
Withdrawals are recorded at the fair value of the assets on the date of distribution.
Reclassifications
Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current-year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net assets available for benefits.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Participants may elect to contribute a percentage of their contribution and Company contributions to the FON and PCS stock funds. In 2004, these combined contributions approximated $5 million to the company common stock funds. In 2003, combined contributions approximated $2 million and $3 million to the FON and PCS stock funds, respectively. In 2002, combined contributions approximated $3 million and $4 million to the FON and PCS stock funds, respectively.
5. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In 2003, several putative class action lawsuits were filed in the U. S. District Court for the District of Kansas by individual participants in the Plan, the Sprint Retirement Savings Plan, and the Sprint Retirement Savings Plan for Bargaining Unit Employees against Sprint, the committee that administers the plans, the trustee for the plans, and various current and former officers and directors of Sprint. These lawsuits have been consolidated before a single judge. The lawsuit alleges that defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the plans and violated the ERISA statutes by including FON stock and PCS stock among the investment options offered to plan participants. The lawsuit seeks to recover any decline in the value of FON stock and PCS stock during the class period.
